Unfortunately, most of the "guests" are members who are "invisible"Quote:

I am so sorry about your BF, cancer is such a terrible thing to go through no matter what the type. :( I am glad he is on his last round of chemo though, I hope he starts fully recovering soon! Prayers going out to you. I am also glad to hear from you, I hope Kai and Dylan are prospering :D
I should say, my post # has shrank considerably, I don't know if it has gone noticed or not. I've been so busy between my new job and other things. I still work at six flags but I am in a new department now and I am so much happier. Although it is ALOT hotter then last year, this job is great, I can't believe I stayed in games for a whole season. I look back and can't think of a way I'd have made myself go back! :eek: What exactly do I do? I am a costume character, yes, a costume character xD I've also had the FFA convention, sweet sixteens and the like. Last weekend I got mysteriously sick, and by 2nd day my mom called the doctor and I went to the ER on tuesday night. I was diagnosed with a "mild" case of pnemonia. DR told me to go because I have a heart condition and they were closing. :rolleyes: I'm fine now but man I was there for at least 5 hours :eek: Anyway, that sums it up for me. As for the new dog, that should be happening within a matter of the next 6 months or so. :D
As for no one else posting, I've noticed quite a few reduced posters as well. I hope they at least check in soon :(
I know I have been gone for couple of months. A lot has been going on, both personal and with the rescue. So, I really apologize. I did not have internet for about a month and a half either. But I will be around again.
I am on much less, and I do miss PT. Sometimes I get on and . . . don't even recognize some of the posters! New members keep coming in and I am not on here enough to keep up just now.
As the Alzheimer's progresses with my Dad, he requires more and more of my time. Adding Tasha, a puppy mill rescue, has taken its toll, she also needs more time and attention to help her adapt to life as a house pet. (She still isn't house trainined. :rolleyes:) Also been busy with renovation projects inside, plus the summer is MY season, I spend loads of time outdoors. Veggie garden, flowers, walking the dogs, etc. So I am normally off the computer more in nice weather. All told, my computer time is WAY down.
I would imagine there are a host of reasons:
1) if you say you are just lurking lately, I bet there are alot of others doing the same
2) I don't have to mention the economy SUCKS! Less lesiure time, less money/time for internet, people losing their jobs or working two to make ends meet, people losing homes much less internet access. :(
3) "Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans" J. Lennon
:rolleyes:
This pesky "responsible adult" stuff is a pain! LOL!:p

Even I haven't been visiting PT as often as I used to and I've been doing more lurking than posting. Sometimes I'm just too tired or rushed to post. I did take some new pictures of my cats today so hopefully I'll be able to resize, upload, and post some new pictures very soon.:) Summer is always a slow time around here.
I am not on my pc as often as I used to be...! I still love it here though!!
I'm a newbie, but I really enjoy PT. Unfortunately, I work full time and don't get to play on the computer as much as I'd like. I also spend time on the Bird Channel when I can which is a great deal of fun and full of wonderful folks like PT, but again, sometimes it's days before I can get on to chat with my bird buddies. Currently, my boss is out today so I'm slacking at my desk! Don't tell anyone!

I'm there with you! My boss is out, and my computer is on the fritz at home, so it's either check in here or not at all!! I'm here just about every day, though, but I'm probably one of the "newer" members - just since October.
I'm not on as much as I'd like. I'm living at my cabin (with no internets) and taking summer classes, which is consuming my life right now. But I try to check in M-W for a few minutes to check out new posts and see what's happening.
I too am posting less than before. Mostly it's because I only have access at work and my hours have been cut to 21 a week. Sometimes I actually have to work while I'm here!
It's hard to post when the boss is watching, but I try to slip in a helpful note now and then. I still manage to read most of the posts and send up prayers that everyone and their animals are doing well.
Oh Mary, what has this world come to!! :eek: :DQuote:
